R The host (see GUI/host folder) injects texthook.dll (created from the texthook folder) into the target process and connects to it via 2 pipe files.
Host writes to hostPipe, texthook writes to hookPipe.
texthook waits for the pipe to be connected, then injects a few instructions into any text outputting functions (e.g. TextOut, GetGlyphOutline) that cause their input to be sent through the pipe.
-Additional information about hooks is shared through a file view (a.k.a. section object) that is mapped to a reference to the TextHook class.
+Additional information about hooks is exchanged via shared memory.
The text that the host receives through the pipe is then processed a little before being dispatched back to the GUI.
Finally, the GUI dispatches the text to extensions before displaying it.
